Injurylawyers4u is an advertisement
The article Injurylawyers4u has been speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising which only promotes a company, product, group or service and which would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article. Please read the general criteria for speedy deletion, particularly item 11, as well as the guidelines on spam. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. —C.Fred (talk) 17:00, 7 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Starting with the references issue first, there were no references to independent reliable sources. All the "references" were links to other articles, some of which were tangential to the subject. —C.Fred (talk) 17:19, 7 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Tone-wise, here's the lede of the article: "InjuryLawyers4U is the number one consortium of leading personal injury solicitors in the UK. They help people to claim compensation after they’ve suffered an accident where someone else may have been at fault. Accident victims get in contact with InjuryLawyers4U through their website or by phoning their call centre." The "number one" text is not backed up by a claim of who ranked them first, and the text reads like the company's web page and not an article about the company. —C.Fred (talk) 17:22, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
